Choose a number from 1-25 below. 20 will get games. 4 will get coupons. 1 will get...mwuhuhuhahahahaha. (I considered making more of a game out of it. But that would require a lot of people to be online a lot and would take too long so we'll just do it EF style!

Special thanks to Mckerney for donating 6 of these titles including probably the biggest ones, Left 4 Dead 2 and Portal. The rest I got from the Steam sales last month and had a couple free/leftover things. So consider this a last chance to get something you may have missed! :)

bhlloy 01-04-2012 11:57 PM

Can I have 17 please sir?

CrimsonFox 01-05-2012 12:00 AM

and yes mckerney you can sign up too if you want. But as you already have a million games I'm not sure why you'd want to :)

JonInMiddleGA 01-05-2012 12:11 AM

If this isn't something that required some previous participation (and I have no idea, if so by all means ignore my silly ass), then I'll take lucky #13.

jbergey22 01-05-2012 12:23 AM

22 please. And thanks.

MikeVic 01-05-2012 12:27 AM

I'll take #1.... Thanks Crimson for such generosity ;)

Barkeep49 01-05-2012 06:35 AM

20 for the win

MJ4H 01-05-2012 06:41 AM

14!

gstelmack 01-05-2012 07:00 AM

Never mind, deleting, there are only 1 or 2 on the list I don't have, so let others in on this.

Thomkal 01-05-2012 07:02 AM

dolfin 01-05-2012 07:14 AM

12!

CrimsonFox 01-05-2012 07:16 AM

You're welcome all...and thank EagleFan, mckerney, and PilotMan too! They gave me steam games over the past couple weeks so I'm just keeping the spirit going with New Year's Presents!

(And someone else made one of these threads too but I forgot who it was altho I didn't play that one)

CrimsonFox 01-05-2012 07:19 AM

And thank the pig! (Now there's a fairly obscure film reference)

Tasan 01-05-2012 07:25 AM

16!

Coffee Warlord 01-05-2012 07:56 AM

25!

PackerFanatic 01-05-2012 07:57 AM

18!

CrimsonFox 01-05-2012 08:06 AM

And PackerFanatic takes the last number!

Who will win?!

Who Will lose?!?

Who will regret entering this? :)

Answers late tonight!

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 02:55 AM

So will PackerFanatic get shut out again? Oh No! He just might!

Stay Tuned...

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 03:05 AM

As I start listing the winners above throughout the day, please indicate below what your Steam ID is. The gift is yours to do with what you want (keep it, play it, share it with family, regift whatever). If you don't want it, however, for any reason, please say so as well. If I don't hear from you by Monday night, I will pull it back to do something else with it. Enjoy!
(Although do NOT send me a PM as it will just explode my mailbox. Just post things here)

I will list a one an hour...

Blackadar 01-06-2012 06:52 AM

Thank you for your generosity Crimson Fox.

My steam name is the same as my account here.

Thomkal 01-06-2012 06:59 AM

Thanks CF! I think you already know my Steam name :)

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 07:39 AM

5 games won (including Portal and one of the neatest looking old school-looking games I've seen "VVVVVV") and one dreaded CC (crappy coupon)! BUT...Mota gets a FREE SPIN on the WHEEL OF DEATH! What will happen THEN?!?!?

dolfin 01-06-2012 07:48 AM

Thank you CrimsonFox!

my Steam name is kwmcnutt

please set up your steam community profile. It told me to tell you that. :)

Coffee Warlord 01-06-2012 07:55 AM

Btw, mine is coffeewarlord (without the underscore) on steam, if I happen to be a BIG WINNER.

Ha! I'll do that, thanks for relaying the message :)

And thanks again!

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 07:58 AM

Just to reiterate, when you give me your steam name, I am going to take that as a "Yes I'm taking the game".

Also make sure you give me the right name. (What people see you as and not what you log in with).

Also, Also, apparently you HAVE to set up your community profile and I have to friend you to send you something. And I can't friend you without the first part, so make sure you all do that.

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 08:05 AM

Coffee is up next and he wins....an intriguing little puzzle adventure called Windosill. Definitely reminds me of Terry Gilliam's Monty Python animations...

dolfin 01-06-2012 08:05 AM

done :)

Apparently its been a while since I've logged in...

tell me how fun that game is... It's definitely the type of game I'd enjoy watching other people play and not one I'd actually be good at.

Coffee Warlord 01-06-2012 08:13 AM

Windosill looks decidedly...acid trippy. :)

Thanks.

Groundhog 01-06-2012 08:28 AM

Thanks Crimson, my steam ID is angush

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 08:29 AM

Other revealed presents so far have been
Groundhog getting VegasL Make It Big, which looks like an odd cross between a Roller Coaster Tycoon and the Sims, but in Vegas. (Vegas baby Vegas!)
Blackadar received one of the hot games in Portal.
Thomkal got Puzzleworld which is exactly what it sounds like. Puzzles...logic, wordsearch, crossword, and others....puzzles...
Dolfin received VVVVVV, an odd name which seems to represent the constant spikes you are trying to avoid in this Megaman like oldschool platform clone. THe odd thing is you can constantly invert yourself and run on the ceiling so those V's could represent being up or down. As I said I would suck at this...
and
bhlloy gets Risen, a nice looking straight up computer RPG. Nice and beefy!

I find the Link-A-Pix to be strangely addicting.

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 10:32 AM

Next up...

MJ4H receives one of my favorite puzzle games. A sidescroller with some platform goodness and the most unique characters and world I've seen in awhile, the old Playstation 1/PC game OddWorld: Abe's Oddysee. I'm addicted to the Slig's laugh.

For jbergey, not so much a game persay...as a "Playing GOd" simulator. A science experiment gone mad, the universe is literally at your fingertips and you can play with the planets and the galaxies however you like. Kind of a scary thought watching what happened when I set one of the planets out of its orbit. Universe Simulator..

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 11:12 AM

Barkeep gets a classic big name...Half Life 2: Episode 1.

jbergey22 01-06-2012 11:15 AM

Invitation sent. jbergey08 I believe is my user name on that. Thanks again Crimson, cant wait to try this.

Barkeep49 01-06-2012 11:22 AM

Ooh exciting, but one of the few games (the Half Lifes and Portal) that I already own. Would be happy to trade with someone a different winner.

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 11:24 AM

You can figure that out later. I'll just send it to you now and you can regift or whatever. :)

bhlloy 01-06-2012 11:27 AM

Awesome, thanks CF! I will get you my steam ID as soon as I get home this evening

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 12:15 PM

We've had our second coupon winner! Pilotman! Woowoo! A coupon! Wow!

And he gets a FREE consolation spin on the magic wheel!

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 01:02 PM

AnalBumCover receives one of the most literal kickass titles I've ever played.

Nothing but a shooter to the nth power! Doom with good graphics!

Serious Sam 2!

AnalBumCover 01-06-2012 01:23 PM

Thanks CF! I'll have to confirm when I get home, but I think my SteamID is robordona

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 02:19 PM

And next we have MikeVic.

We've had Abe's Oddysee up here, so let's pull out the sequel:
Odddworld: Abe's Exodus for him.

MikeVic 01-06-2012 02:36 PM

Maybe you should search for ME instead. :)

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 03:16 PM

I need to get some sleep as I've been sick for the past two weeks and my sleep schedule is all fubared up.

Will continue this venture tonight.

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 03:22 PM

Oh PackerFanatic.

Poor, poor Packerfanatic...

Mizzou B-ball fan 01-06-2012 08:15 PM

I wasn't involved in this thread, but thanks to CrimsonFox for doing this for the FOFC community. Always nice to see people do nice things for other community members.

bhlloy 01-06-2012 08:17 PM

Steam username is the same as this forum... thanks!

MJ4H 01-06-2012 08:21 PM

My steam username is Gorgonian (I think). If not, it's MJ4H. Thanks! I know nothing about that game.

Mota 01-06-2012 09:55 PM

Hey thanks again Crimson, I'm on your friends list already as Mota. I have no idea what this Wheel of Death is, I'm curious. :)

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 10:04 PM

I'm very glad you asked! People are always saying to me, "Fox! What's with that damn wheel? What is it?"

Well the wheel is very similar to the wheel of life or the wheel of fortune or the wheel of robot hands....except it's the wheel of death.

I spin it and you get what it lands on. What could be more fun!

CrimsonFox 01-06-2012 10:17 PM

On this wheel are some pretty annoying things and they all revolve around YOU!

Magic Wheel color choices

Red - Bad Poetry
Orange - Flash Fiction (I didn't say "Bad Flash Fiction" because I don't like being redundant)
Yellow - Stupidity
Green - A Random page from a random book
Blue - More Bad Poetry
Indigo -
Adventure Awaits...
Violet - Abuse
Rainbow - CHOOSE A MAGIC CHOICE!

Apparently so, done and accepted the invite from you

CrimsonFox 01-07-2012 12:30 AM

The Wheel of Death exploits will be touted in the BRAND NEW (and improved) Dynasty thread: Santa, His Leftovers, and the Magic Color Wheel of Death! - Front Office Football Central

And it is a mandatorily interactive dangerouse thread (TM). So already we have one contestant, Mota who will be "treated" to a bad poem about himself. So go on over and help write a bad masterpiece about your friend and mine, Mota.

CrimsonFox 01-07-2012 01:04 AM

Next up gamewise is larrymcg who receives the oldold school Sega Genesis game Ecco Jr. You are a cute little baby dolphin all cuddly and cute in the sea. Probably saving the world or something...

CrimsonFox 01-07-2012 07:51 AM

Mota has spun the Magic Wheel and turned up Red. Next to spin is PilotMan...
Head on over to the dynasty thread to see...

CrimsonFox 01-07-2012 08:55 AM

ah finally found you. You are actually known as Groundhog and not angush (at least in searches and how I see you). I was looking at the wrong angush before. Funny we were already friends and I didn't notice. :)

CrimsonFox 01-07-2012 11:10 AM

And speaking of prequels...Qrusher receives the original Half Life 2.

One of the best levels in that game for me was "We Don't Go To Ravenholm". Slicing those big guys in half with the gravity gunned longblade was ...well...just messy fun. And if cuttin' people in half with a long blade is wrong, then I don't wanna be right.

Qrusher14242 01-07-2012 12:29 PM

cool! thx! my steam name is just name, qrusher

Thanks! Steam id is larrymcg421

CrimsonFox 01-07-2012 12:44 PM

The good news is that Tasan has received the Cthulhu Saves the World/Breath of Death VII double pack. Both are retro RPG parodies that look pretty fun.

THe bad news is that the COlorado Rancheros have to get past Cthulhu and play him in next season's FOOL Classic!

is your name this: larrymcgillicuddy ?

If so you have to set up your community profile before I can friend you.

CrimsonFox 01-07-2012 12:49 PM

2 coupons and 6 games left...

CrimsonFox 01-07-2012 01:45 PM

...and one of those games is a faerie playing with himself.

CrimsonFox 01-07-2012 01:52 PM

BY himself...playing BY himself...

CrimsonFox 01-07-2012 02:26 PM

TroyF receives the very illuminating puzzle adventure Lume. Looks to be art directed within an inch of its life. All scenes were actually constructed with cardboard and such and actually lit real life and then photographed and their images digitally tweaked or something like that. Looks very unique...

TroyF 01-07-2012 02:58 PM

If you can't find it, I'll double check when I get home.

Thanks, I added you and joined the FOFC group.

CrimsonFox 01-08-2012 12:04 AM

And B&B gets the most epic of epic titles.




The one...





the only....









Faerie Solataire...





Play solitaire card games and you have a pet that does things. Kind of a weird combination of cards and monster rancher. (Actually who knows. Maybe it's one of those totally addictive casual games...)

CrimsonFox 01-08-2012 12:36 AM

Some really good titles left and only 6 people left. Next up....someone will receive a Crappy Coupon!

CrimsonFox 01-08-2012 08:52 AM

So who will be the next receiver of the dreaded coupon?

Will it be Danny?
Or how about apoc?
Lonnie's a possibility?
Or CleBrowns? He does like the Browns I hear.
Or DanGarion? Will giving him a coupon make him more or less hot?
Or who else? Who else am I missing? Who else might POSSIBLY get a coupon?

Tasan 01-09-2012 12:00 AM

Tasan01 here, sorry I've been busy all weekend. Thanks!

Groundhog 01-09-2012 12:07 AM

Ditto; thanks!

I can't imagine.

CrimsonFox 01-09-2012 12:32 PM

So who gets the coupon? Who? WHO? WHOOOOO?

Who wouldn't want it? I mean it's a perfectly ordinary coupon. And it's really a pathetic old coupon. Any piece of crap. A putrid odorous coupon.
A pretty ostrich cries, "Any packet of crumbs?"

*sigh*

You still haven't figured it out?

Werewolf players, please tell the rest of the crowd who gets the coupon.

Well, a little mwuhuhuhahahahaha passes through all of our lives from time to time.

Lonnie 01-09-2012 03:01 PM

It's a petty observed conclusion that Apoc gets the coupon.
